Change ALL default paste behavior to "paste without formatting"
Okay. I love thunderbird, but the default paste behavior is absolutely useless to me. It messes up the formatting of absolutely every single email, without fail.
I am aware mozilla added the right click option "paste without formatting" but this is just a bandaid fix as having to use the mouse instead of CTRL+V interrupts my workflow.
I am unaware of any other key combination that will paste without formatting, but these are useless to me too, as my muscle memory isn't flawed, the behaviour of the program is. Using a different shortcut will just make me mess things up in other programs.
IDEALLY I WANT TO: 1) Remove default "paste" from context menu entirely. I have zero need, EVER, to paste with formatting. 2) Change name of "Paste without formatting" option to simply be called "Paste" 3) Reassign CTRL+V to "paste without formatting"
If there is no way at all to do this, can someone recommend me an entirely different POP3 client that will?
I absolutely love thunderbird but I have decided this is just unworkable for me and I'm ready to bin the entire application unless I can find a fix.
Cheers!

there is a shortcut ctrl+shift+V
Also Ctrl+V is a windows shortcut and most wants programs to use them. Less confusion. https://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/keys_general.mspx?mfr=true
由Gnospen于修改
Copy and paste to and from the Clipboard is an operating system function. Use any client that you want, or any software for that matter, it will react the same. As pointed out by Gnospen it is up to you to learn how to use your operating system and its shortcuts. This is not a Thunderbird problem. They were good enough to give you a couple of Right click options and you are still trying to blame them.
CTRL+V is a system function.
Choosing to use formatting or not is a Mozilla dev decision.
Inability to swap the two is bad design.
Looking for a different POP3 client that someone has experience with it not doing this bullshit - because it's something damn near impossible to google.
The keyconfig add-on will let you redefine the ctrl-v keystroke, but I can't think of a simple way to modify what appears in the menus. Theoretically you could edit some resource files or compile your own version of Thunderbird. But ctrl-v as "paste without formatting" would be inconsistent with virtually all other instances of the paste function.
